Suspension tuning

General notes

The Adaptive Damping System (ADS) automatically controls the calibration of the dampers and springs.

The damping is tuned individually to each wheel and depends on:
• your driving style, e.g. sporty
• the road surface condition, e.g. bumps
• your individual selection, i.e. sports or comfort

Your selection remains stored even if you remove the SmartKey from the ignition lock.

The firmer suspension tuning in Sport mode ensures even better contact with the road.
